-Caveat Lector- LINCOLN ASSASSINATION IS PIVOTAL EVENT ====================================== (CNNS, 02/19/99) -- This is a general overview, pointing to the importance of the Lincoln assassination to today's events. 1) Britain did not give up after the Revolutionary War. It has got to be understood that from 1776 through 1865 (at least) Britain coveted control of her former colonies and their sphere of influence. 2) Britain utilized banking schemes to exert control, subsequent to the Revolutionary War. When these banking schemes came under attack circa 1812, the Brits again used their military against us. 3) President Andrew Jackson was a great hero, who defeated British banking interests. 4) Circa 1840, the British were otherwise engaged, with a war in the Crimea. Momentarily, the U.S. was free from Brit influence. 5) But by the 1850s, British agents once more were at work. They circulated throughout the South and stirred up insurrection. The Brit "divide and conquer" strategy was operant. A weakened U.S. would mean advantage for Brit geopolitical influence in this hemisphere. 6) THIS IS THE CONTEXT in which Abraham Lincoln's battle to save the Union has got to be understood; that the Brits had imperialistic designs on this hemisphere and only a UNITED States could effectively oppose them. 7) Wall Street Capitalists typically sought only profit. They demanded usurious rates of interest from Lincoln and the Union in return for loans needed to finance the war. Lincoln turned them down, and set up "greenback" money. This greenback money and the antagonisms it caused is a major story in itself. But the point to remember is that the wealthy American Capitalists pursued only greed in the dark beginning of the U.S. Civil War. 8) After Lincoln and the Union had routed the Brit threat in this hemisphere, a living Lincoln would have finished the work he'd started. At that point, Wall Street speculators caused the murder of Lincoln. THAT IS THE PIVOTAL OCCURRENCE IN U.S. HISTORY. That is where was born the Washington DC ROME ON THE POTOMAC. That is where we went wrong. 9) Do not blame Lincoln for the modern federal octopus. Lincoln fought against an imperialistic threat to this hemisphere. The Capitalists typically cared only for their greed in 1861; again, in 1865, they cared only for their greed and that greed was behind (a) the Lincoln assassination; (b) the unchained evil of Washington, DC, which Lincoln, had he lived, would have ameliorated. 10) THIS WAS WHERE WE WENT WRONG. The John F. Kennedy assassination was nowhere near as pivotal as the Lincoln assassination. -- CNNS (Conspiracy Nation News Service) is an INDEPENDENT news outlet, not owned by anyone.
